Wild West Scrap Divas Is teaming up with an amazing Designer ........ Kathryn Krieger from Life on the {Scrap}Beach! We have teamed up to provide a Fabulous Christmas Mini album Kit!

So what am I even talking about anyway? For those of you who don't know, last year Kathryn offered a virtual Christmas album class in a box. The kit came with everything needed to complete an album She designed, along with a DVD where She guided viewers through the assembly of an album identical to Her's in a classroom like format. The tutorial was exclusive to the DVD & included tips and techniques which She has never shown on YouTube. Putting the video on DVD instead of YouTube allowed her to offer a slower pace with fewer cuts and more detailed shots. The DVD classroom format also enables purchasers to scrap at their own pace by pausing, rewinding, skipping ahead, etc. No more waiting for videos to load.

Like all her albums, this album will be chock full of beautiful techniques, unique and exciting pages, interactive page elements and fun embellishments. The 2010 album will primarily feature the Graphic 45 "Christmas Past" collection, with inclusions from 7Gypsies, American Crafts, Clearsnap, Crafty Secrets, Jenni Bowlin, Prima, Ranger, Sizzix, Tattered Angels, Tim Holtz and More! There is over $150.00 MSRP worth of goodies in the box & that's not including the DVD!

This year the kits are going deluxe. We've included lots of high-end papers and embellishments from some of the hottest manufacturers in scrapbooking. We'll be chronicling our family Christmas traditions, memories and recipes in a luxurious vintage ~ even Victorian ~ twelve page 8"x8" Christmas album.

Pre-orders will go up on October 1, 2010 and will close on November 1, 2010. Kits will ship by December 1st unless there is a problem with a manufacturer, or the USPS goes on strike. Pre-order prices are only good through November 1st. After that, kits may not be available or may only be available at elevated prices due to minimum order requirements. I should tell you that last year the kits sold out completely during pre-orders.

There will be three pre-order options this year: Full Kit + DVD Deposit Only, Full Kit + DVD Paid in Full and DVD Only.

Pre-Order Prices:through November 1st
1. DVD only: $19.95 USD + shipping due on order. Will ship in a USPS Priority flate rate envelope.2. DVD, Chipboard, Paper & All the Trimmings, Deposit Only: $150.00 USD total, $75.00 USD due on pre-order and the remaining $75.00 USD + Shipping due when kits are complete & ready to ship. Shipping will be via the USPS Priority mail Medium FRB.3. DVD, Chipboard, Paper & All the Trimmings, Paid in Full: $150.00 USD + shipping due on pre-order. The benefit of paying the total upfront is that the second the kits are ready to ship, these kits will be the first out the door.

Payment will be via PayPal. Information on how to pre-order this gorgeous showcase for your family's activities, recipes and holiday traditions will be available on October 1st!

While a full class sample will not be available for this project kit for you to view before you commit to pre-ordering, a supply list will be included in the pre-order post so you can see exactly what product is included. The album is a twelve page 8"x8" chipboard album.

During last sundays Scrap Chat...I made a very special friend a little something just to say thank you for everything! This wall hanging is for my bestie who's favorite color is red. I think it turned out beautiful. I hope she likes it! The following pictures show the details of the project very well. I used an 8x10 canvas board I bought at Michaels. I used acrylic paint, stamps, flowers, rub ons, feathers, some bling and a few other items. Here is the result...

I really had a wonderful time making this...hope you like it as well!
